I was talking about riding in stopped traffic.

I think you have hit on something here.

I have a hunch that when I first mentioned white lining, that
many ASSUMED I meant I was one of those motorcyclists that
fly between moving cars 30 mph faster than the flow of traffic.

But my posted example was of white lining at stoplights, when
traffic is stopped.

There's a big difference between the two situations.

At stop lights, the only reason for other drivers to be upset
is that they're jealous that I happen to be getting ahead of
them in traffic. Fact is, and I've tested this a few times,
I don't gain much time by white lining. But I do gain something
for my safety.
